Please read this End User License Agreement (“Agreement” or “EULA”) carefully before purchasing, downloading, installing, or using GDDKit (“Software”).
By downloading, installing, or using the Software, you agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. If you do not agree, do not purchase, download, install, or use the Software.
1. License Grant and Scope
Subject to your payment of the license fee (via Gumroad, Lemon Squeezy, or Itch.io) and compliance with this Agreement, the author (“Licensor”) grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, perpetual, single-user license to install and use GDDKit on your personal or commercial Windows computers.
2. Intellectual Property and Ownership
The Software, including its executable binaries, XAML layouts, source code, section templates, assets, and design system, is the sole property of the Licensor (camyesili). The Software is protected by copyright, trade secret, and other intellectual property laws. The Software is licensed to you, not sold. Licensor retains all ownership, copyright, and trade secret rights.
3. Update Distribution and Unauthorized Downloads
The Licensor exposes software update payloads, installer executables, and dependencies via an online update server and distribution network to facilitate automatic updates.
- No Public License Granted: The public availability or accessibility of any installer files or update payloads on the distribution network does not constitute a public license, permission, or invitation to download, extract, install, or use the Software without a verified transaction and invoice of purchase.
- Prohibition of Direct Downloading: Accessing, scraping, mirroring, or downloading binaries directly from our update server files outside the authorized in-app update mechanism is strictly prohibited.
- Theft of Service: Any execution, distribution, or installation of the Software compiled from update payloads without a valid purchase transaction constitutes software piracy, copyright infringement, and theft under applicable local and international laws.
4. Restrictions on Use
You agree not to, and you will not permit others to:
- Decompile or Reverse Engineer: Modify, decompile, decrypt, disassemble, extract, debug, or reverse-engineer the WPF/C# assembly files, databases, or DLLs of the Software.
- Redistribute: Sell, rent, lease, sublicense, distribute, host, or outsource the Software, or make the Software available to third parties.
- Evade Updates: Tamper with, block, or redirect requests to the update servers to bypass licensing or signature verification.
- Create Derivative Works: Build competing tools, preset catalogs, or document generators extracted directly from the Software’s template resources.
5. Security and Signature Verification
The Software contains native background checks to verify the integrity of the update payloads received from the update servers. Any attempt to spoof the update manifest, serve modified assemblies, or inject malicious payloads will void the license immediately and may be subject to legal action.
6. Term and Termination
This Agreement is effective from the date you first install or use the Software and shall continue until terminated. Your rights under this License will terminate automatically without notice from the Licensor if you fail to comply with any term(s) of this Agreement. Upon termination, you must cease all use and destroy all copies of the Software.
7. Limitation of Liability
THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED “AS IS”, WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE AUTHORS OR COPYRIGHT HOLDERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY CLAIM, DAMAGES, OR OTHER LIABILITY, WHETHER IN AN ACTION OF CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE, ARISING FROM, OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE SOFTWARE.
